Industrial Celery Juicer Machine
The AGICO Celery Juicer Machine is a continuous screw-press system for separating liquid from celery and other prepared fruit or vegetable material. Product enters through the hopper, moves through a variable-pitch screw, and is compressed against a screen. Juice leaves through a dedicated stainless-steel outlet while fibrous residue is discharged continuously at the end of the press.
Celery needs more preparation than soft fruit because long stalk fibers can bridge at the inlet, wrap around moving parts, or create an uneven feed. Pre-cutting or pre-crushing is therefore recommended before pressing. The practical configuration should be selected around stalk condition, target juice clarity, required throughput, screen aperture, and the way juice and pulp will be handled after discharge.
Features That Affect Celery Juice Production
Variable-Pitch Screw Compression
The changing screw geometry progressively reduces the available space around the material. This supports continuous liquid release, but the correct pressure setting still depends on fiber length, moisture content, and the acceptable dryness of the discharged pulp.
Screen Options for Juice Condition
A reference 0.6 mm screen provides a practical starting point. A finer 0.3 mm or customized screen can reduce larger suspended particles, although a smaller opening may require closer cleaning and more careful feed control.
Adjustable Residue Outlet
Manual adjustment at the pulp outlet changes resistance inside the press. Excessive restriction can overload the material path; insufficient restriction can leave more liquid in the residue. Operators should establish a stable setting with representative celery.
Separate Juice and Pulp Routes
Independent outlets help a production line send juice to a tank or next process while moving fibrous residue to a bin or conveyor. Transfer height, container capacity, drainage, and cleaning access should be confirmed before installation.

Prepare the Feed and Plan the Interfaces
A stable press begins with consistent preparation and enough space for both liquid and residue handling.
Pre-cut or Pre-crush Long Celery Stalks
Washed celery should be inspected for ties, stones, hard foreign matter, and heavily damaged pieces. Long stalks are best reduced to a feed length that enters the hopper without bridging. A crusher can produce a more uniform mash before pressing, but the crushing intensity should not create unnecessary fines if a clearer juice is required.
At AGICO, we normally ask how celery reaches the line: loose stalks, trimmed bundles, or pre-cut pieces from a washer and cutter. That answer determines the practical hopper loading method and whether an upstream crusher or metering conveyor is appropriate.
Coordinate Juice Collection and Pulp Removal
The juice outlet should connect to a covered receiving vessel, pump, or downstream filtration stage that can accept the expected flow without backing up. The residue side needs enough container volume or conveyor capacity to prevent pulp from accumulating around the discharge.
For continuous operation, the crusher, press, tank, transfer pump, and packaging or treatment step must be sized as one system. A nominally larger press does not increase line output if the receiving tank fills too quickly or operators must stop frequently to exchange pulp bins.
Working Process, Cleaning, and Control Points
01 - Prepare
Wash, inspect, trim, and pre-cut or crush the celery. Keep the prepared feed reasonably consistent so the screw receives material steadily.
02 - Press
Meter material into the hopper. Observe motor load, outlet flow, and pulp condition while increasing residue-outlet resistance in controlled steps.
03 - Separate
Juice passes through the screen and exits by pipe; compressed fiber leaves separately. Check that neither route is restricted.
04 - Clean and Inspect
Stop and isolate the machine before opening the press area. Remove retained fibers, clean the screen openings and food-contact surfaces, inspect seals and fasteners, and verify free drainage before restart.
Fibrous residue can dry onto the screen and reduce open area, so cleaning should follow each production run or product change rather than waiting for visible blockage. When changing from celery to ginger, carrot, tomato, or fruit, record the screen used, the accepted outlet-pressure setting, and the first acceptable restart sample. Our team recommends testing the actual material when juice clarity, yield, or pulp dryness is a critical purchasing criterion; those outcomes depend on preparation and operating settings, not on motor power alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does celery need to be crushed before pressing?
Pre-crushing is recommended for celery and other fibrous raw materials because shorter, more uniform pieces feed more consistently. The required preparation depends on stalk length, firmness, and the selected inlet arrangement.
-
How should we choose the screen aperture?
Use the required juice condition and cleaning interval as the starting points. A finer screen may retain larger particles but can demand more frequent cleaning. Representative-material testing is recommended before final selection.
-
Is 500–1,500 kg/h guaranteed for every material?
No. It is a common reference range across configurations. Actual throughput varies with the model, feed preparation, fiber content, screen, pressure setting, feeding continuity, and downstream capacity.
-
What information does AGICO need for model selection?
Please provide the raw material, prepared particle size, hourly and shift target, required juice condition, preferred screen, voltage, upstream equipment, and the planned juice and pulp discharge routes. Sample testing can be discussed when the product behavior is uncertain.
